Canadian Rooter reviews (904)

Public Plumbing did a good job at my house. They've removed an old and installed a new dishwasher for me. Few companies I've called quoted over $450, while Public Plumbing gave much more reasonable price. I found them on google and I'm very happy about my choice. John came on time and did a very nice job. Thank you! Tim

Had a problem with a backed up sewer & drain, lots of water. in basement. john brought in camera, located the problem & in 2 days his crew took out the old and drain pipe & installed new pcv pipe outside with very little repairs required to driveway, everything was done with little disruption & very high tech. A Very courtious, pleasant, efficient and experienced group of men that performed the repairs with little mess Everything is now back to normal.

After speaqking with a few plumbing and drain companies I was recommended to Nazer and Boris at Public Plumbing. Boris came to my house and in plain english explained to me what I needed and why and answered all my questions. After some fair negotiations I agreed to the work and they started the following week. Their team was polite, determined and very friendly and from concrete breaking to their boot wraps for inside the house, they really provide great service and efficient work. Walter and his team were so focused they completed everything in one day, including pouring concrete over the holes they had made. A big thank you from me and my family, the water pressure is great as was the experience. Easy 10 out of 10

UPDATE: In 2012, a plumber, with whom we were unfamiliar, from Public Plumbing company came and gave us a quote and a strategy for fixing a leaky toilet. The man said it would involve waterproofing the basement walls, for a cost of several thousand dollars (like, that's 7 K just for a toilet that was leaking at the time and didn't even include the cost or plan to fix the toilet). When I said I thought it was just leaking from the toilet base out, and not from the wall in, the man was pretty angry with me and didn't want to give up. We later had another plumber fix the seal and the water on the floor in that bathroom dried up, never to bother us again. The work Public Plumbing had done for us before was so great, so organized, so punctual, clean - everything you could want - but we had no choice but to sever ties based on that individual's inexplicable quote. Original review: We discovered this company because they helped us "in a pinch" on Thanksgiving Day when we called them to handle a small project. While John was in our house fixing the sink, we were impressed with him and asked about conversion to 1' copper pipes from the property line to the house. We agreed to have him and his workers come back a week later and do the project. It's a big job but it was completed yesterday all in one day. The crew was quiet, professional and left the place cleaner than it was to start with. Now we are really happy with the pressure throughout the house and the knowledge that our household water is no longer soaking in lead before it reaches us. It was fun going around flushing toilets and running faucets and seeing how much pressure we have now. But also, we feel that we are being given very good service, in addition to quality workmanship. I trust that if at any time we weren't satisfied, for whatever reason, this company will stand behind the work and that's very important to me.

Being a Home Inspector, i've had the opportunity to witness many a plumber in action. Some are adequate, some are questionable, and John's crew is exceptional. Not only were they quick and effecient, they were willing to take the time to educate myself on my plumbing system. They left the place clean and respected the surroundings. Great work and will continue to recommend Public Plumbing. Robert Kin A Buyer's Choice Home Inspections robert.kin@abuyerschoice.com

As recent home owners, I am glad we were referred to Naz and his crew! My long-time plumber recommended them to us for the external work, promising that he doesn't refer unless he has complete confidence. Naz was very patient with us, explaining the process without any pressure. He was available to talk us through each step, and only after the work was done did he mention that his wife was expecting to deliver any day - a true professional! We are very pleased with his work, which was done on time and with care. His team even replanted our plants for us. We are happy to have completed these projects with Naz and his team! J & S

Few days ago we happen to get a drain back up. We got it fixed by public plumbing. The job was done quick and clean. Vlad and his crew worked late but they got it done as promised as we had a guest on Sunday . Thank you guys

We needed a basement drain replaced, and wanted to check for tree roots, as the house is older an we smelled some sulfur odours. They discovered some cracked pipes and roots in our pipes, which needed replacing in places. Naz and his crew were very professional. They replaced pipes in the house and in the yard. They had to dig under our hedge and they kept all of the pieces and re-planted them afterward, even adding extra topsoil to help it settle again. Inside they carefully covered the work area to prevent debris getting all over the room. After the job was finished, Naz came back a week or so later to help us put the carpet back down again, which we really appreciated. Many others wouldn't be this helpful. I highly recommend Naz and his crew from Public Plumbing.

Public Plumbing did a very nice job in my house. The quote for the service was very reasonable. The service was quick and clean. Thank you for being on time and for cleaning up the mess. I will call them again.

I was tiling my basement floor and the tiles were cracking because the concrete was wet due to a high water table. Naz came out and assessed the problem, we had a high water table and it was literally breaking down the concrete. He very confidently and quickly assessed the problem and came up with the solution to put a proper weeping tile and sump pump system in. It has fixed our problems and we are very grateful My advice to anyone is to use Public Plumbing for any of your plumbing or waterproofing needs, do it right the first time with them. Thank You Public Plumbing!!! !
